Did you know that?
Organic farming is the most controlled mode of agricultural production in France: the producer, the processor and the distributor are all controlled, at least once a year, by an independent certifying body that guarantees compliance with the specifications. It is the only way of agricultural production that is so well controlled.
Cosmetic products are also certified according to private organic standards.
Why consume organic?
Organic farming is a method of agricultural production that respects the environment, animals and people. Organic products are more natural, with a more authentic taste, and with better nutritional intakes (vitamin C, antioxidants.).

Use:
Cooking and eating chestnuts is a delightful experience, especially during the colder months. Here are some different options to enjoy chestnuts:
Boiling: Place scored chestnuts in a pot of boiling water and cook for about 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain and peel while still warm.
Grilling: Scored chestnuts can be placed on a grill over medium-high heat and cooked for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the shells split open and the insides are tender.
Microwaving: Place a handful of scored chestnuts in a microwave-safe dish and microwave on high for 3-5 minutes, or until tender. Check periodically to avoid overcooking.
Frying: Heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat and add scored chestnuts. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shells split open and the insides are tender and golden brown.
Steaming: Place scored chestnuts in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 15-20 minutes until tender. Remove from the steamer and peel while still warm.
